Batanes | Basco | Batan | Philippines 2016 | Female Solo Traveler

  • We visit Batan in beautiful Batanes! Exploring Basco, Ivana and all of the surroundings - North and South tour.
    Note: Itbayat ans Sabtang are on their way in an other movie! Keep your eye on this channel not to mis out on them.
    Where we slept:
    At Nanay Cita's homestay. A lovely woman and a lovely homestay! Definitely recommended, also for the budget traveler.
    Where we ate:
    I love Cafe du Tukon near La Funcation Pacita. It is a bit expensive, but the views are amazing! Go for some fresh fish, it's amazing.
    Also take a look at Honesty Coffee Shop - you'll visit this in your south tour. Where no one will take your order, they just trust you to pay the right amount in the donations box. How cool is that!
    Favorite place:
    Vayang Rolling hills and Marlboro Country. Can you tell I'm a nature lover? ;) But also the Batan / Basco (naidi) lighthouse is nice to see. Especially when it's dark and the stars take over! At an island as safe as this one, you can do some serious stargazing, even as a girl alone.
    Also Valugan Boulder Beach is amazing when you visit early morning. Ask your guide to take you here first!

    I heard one of the reasons why tickets were expensive was because of limited flights to control the number of people visiting the place. Imagine what will happen if throngs of tourists invade the islands due to cheap flights. It makes sense to me.

    • @TravelGretl
      @TravelGretl  8 років тому +10

      to me too! If your main sellingpoint is a virgin island, you can't let it get overrun :)

    • @chrismartin1539
      @chrismartin1539 8 років тому +23

      You are correct. The towns of Batanes are mindful of the number of visitors that they get. It is increasing every year! The mayors were setting a maximum number of people that they thought they could accommodate without doing any harm to their environment. I kinda agree with them.

    • @melvingabriel9518
      @melvingabriel9518 6 років тому +3

      yes it's true for them to limit the number of tourist going there since the Island can't accommodate more tourist and also to protect the Island for environmental pollution like human waste and among others...

      What makes you say that? There is always a way tourism comes in in some places, and stays out of others. That being said: come and check Amsterdam. I can tell you the Dutch don't know how to preserve a beautiful city with great vibes too when it comes to tourism ;)

      LOL! are you an idiot??? didn't you see the video. that wouldn't be a tourist destination if it wasn't preserved.

      Jhemmy Bear beg to disagree! Watch again and again so u will see the positive that it is well preserved.Dont just comment use ur cerebrum.

      If its not preserve you wont even see this on 2018 , get a life man, just enjoy the beauty of the nature without mentioning a nationality or etc. we are all humans, all equal . May you find peace . Looks like youre having a hard time enjoying life.

    I love Batanes! You are right about its serenity. I felt so close to nature when I was there. No distractions just beautiful nature. There's so much history and the locals were really nice. The best part was waking up early to see the sunrise and waiting for the sunset.

      +Travel Gretl Have you seen TimGloAdventures' trip to Batanes? They also went back to the Philippines around July last year just for the sole purpose of going to Batanes, haha! They made a fun & entertaining vlog about Batanes just like yours. I have to say that you are such a good storyteller! That & your great editing skills made this vlog so perfect. I love the music that you put in this vlog which complements the beautiful scenery & eases one's mind. It was like I was I watching a beautiful short film/documentary. You are that good!!! I appreciate the effort & hardwork that put in making & producing this vlog. Thank you!! The Philippines will be happy to have you back again in the near future. Trust me, you haven't seen the best of it yet, haha! 😘👍👏

I think they been to the Philippines three times in a period of just one & a half year, haha! I think Tim & Glo really liked the Philippines. Their last trip was their Batanes trip which coincided with a typhoon in Batanes, haha! It was still an awesome trip though, haha!☺️
